Pizza Fondue Recipe Tips:
- CHEESE: This recipe calls for mozzarella cheese but you can use any of your favourite cheeses: mozza, cheddar, Monterey Jack…
- DIPPERS: Serve this with any of your favourite pizza toppings. Here are some ideas:
- cubes of crusty bread, garlic bread or sliced French bread
- pepperoni slices or sticks
- salami cubes
- cooked sausage chunks (like Italian sausage)
- bell pepper chunks
- mushrooms
- grape tomatoes
- ham
- pineapple
- black olives
- extra tomato pizza sauce
- SERVING POT: I like to add the finished cheese mixture into a fondue pot and serve it with fondue forks. This type of dish is ideal because you can keep it warm while you enjoy it.

So dust off that fondue pot and get dipping! Have a delicious day!
Jo-Anna this is such a great idea. My boys would absolutely love it! (not to mention how much they would love getting to use our fondue forks….). Pinning it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Krista!
Hello yummy morsels, get in my tummy! Great idea, my kids love anything dipable, and we have a fondue pot that needs to be dusted off! Maybe supper for tonight!
Dipping is the best – my kids love it too so much! I hope you enjoy it!!
This is a new one for me- such a great idea. My son finally likes cheese (he isn’t a picky eater, just never liked cheese). Although, this may be pushing it and a better one to try when he’s away at college!
Finally likes cheese?! Wow that’s so hard to imagine someone not liking cheese, lol! Cheese is my vice!!
I am so out of the fondue loop; this is genius!
Thanks Tia! We loooove fondues – they’re such a fun and simple way to eat dinner!
Pizza fondue. Brilliant. Sooo hungry, sooo verrryyy hungry. Thanks Jo-Anna, this might just be worth digging out the fondue pot.
OMG, this is brilliant. We are a family of 2 vegetarians and 2 meat eaters so this would be a meal we could all share. Love it!
That just looks delish! And your pictures…omg, it makes it soo tempting to eat!!!
That looks like it would be a HUGE hit with my family, thanks for the idea – that is sooo cool!!
This recipe looks incredible! I have a question for you: do you drain the tomatoes before adding them to the pot? Your mouth-watering photo seems to show very fine bits of tomato in with the melted cheeses and wine, hence my question.
Hi Joyce! Yes make sure to drain them before you add them to the cheese…I think the fine bits that you are seeing are just small pieces of tomato. I hope you enjoy this recipe – it’s really great! 🙂
We made this last year and it was a HIT! Our crew loved it above all other fondue cheeses. With that said… I can’t remember if I used fresh mozzarella or just regular, block cheese. What kind did you use? Thanks!
Hi Alli! I just use regular block cheese for this recipe! Enjoy!
